Greater Resistance to Drought, Extreme Weather & Variable Conditions
In an era of variable weather, the most profitable farm is the most resilient one
Farms with strong soil biology show less yield variability between good and bad weather years — a significant advantage for financial planning and lender relationships.
Healthy soil acts as a buffer against both drought and excessive rainfall — holding water in dry spells and draining excess in wet ones, reducing weather-driven losses.
Terreplenish®-treated seedlings develop stronger root systems that establish faster and withstand early-season stress better than those in biologically depleted soil.
Improved soil water retention means crops have access to stored moisture during dry periods. Stronger root systems reach deeper into the soil profile to access water unavailable to shallow roots in compacted, depleted soils.
Well-aggregated, biologically active soil has superior drainage. During wet springs, water moves through the profile quickly, reducing waterlogging, anaerobic conditions, and root disease pressure from excess moisture.
Crops with access to adequate water and nutrients through biological cycling maintain better stomatal function and photosynthesis during heat events, reducing the yield penalty from high temperatures at critical growth stages.
Biologically healthy soil with active microbial communities naturally suppresses pathogens. When crops face stress from weather, they're not simultaneously fighting soil-borne disease — a common double-hit in degraded soils.
Tennessee's unpredictable spring weather creates planting window pressures. Terreplenish®-treated soil warms faster, drains better, and supports quicker seedling establishment — getting crops off to a stronger start regardless of conditions.
Mid-season drought during pollination and grain fill is the most damaging weather event for Tennessee row crops. Biological soil health provides a meaningful buffer — not eliminating drought stress but significantly reducing its yield impact.
Well-structured, biologically active soil supports earlier field access after fall rains — reducing harvest delays, grain quality losses from standing in the field, and equipment compaction damage.
Active soil biology helps maintain structure through freeze-thaw cycles, reducing compaction and crust formation that impairs spring planting. Your investment in soil health is protected year-round.
